Re: WTB: OEM or Thule cross bars '04 XC70 (have raised side rails)

Raised side rails as in factory installed roof rails (raised). Basically I only need the cross bars that go between to hold up my carrier. I'll take a look at what you have. Thank you!!

WTB: OEM or Thule cross bars '04 XC70 (have raised side rails)

I just purchased a Thule box for my Volvo but now need the cross bars. My car already has the raised side rails. There are a lot of junk aftermarket bars but would prefer to stay with Thule or Volvo OEM (which I believe is Thule anyway).

Thanks so much!
Jackie :D

Re: 2004 XC70 Center wheel bolt coming loose

Thanks so much everyone! I was able to find a Volvo specialist and took it in before the trek home. He replaced the bolt and torqued it to spec and everything seems ok. I'll keep an eye on it and see if it happens again. The shop did say that they see at least one(if not more) Volvos a month come in ...

2004 XC70 Center wheel bolt coming loose

A few months back my brake and ABS light would flash only when making a hard right hand turn. Took it in and found that the wheel bolt was loose. The mechanic tightened it and it was fine. A few months later I saw my center cap was missing and when I looked, the center bolt was completely gone ...

2004 XC70 ABS Light on all the time;traction control flashes

Driving from PA to MD my ABS light came on. I had no problems getting here. I want to run to the store and when I started the car the ABS light came on again and the anti skid light flashes and there is a clunking noise in the front and it feels like I have a flat tire. Pulled over, turned the car ...

Re: Volvo running hot during idle/traffic

Ok...wish me luck! Went to the junkyard today and picked up a fan. Heading out to grab a new thermostat so hopefully this fixed the problem. Fingers crossed:)

Reliable and affordable mechanic near Mahwah, NJ?

Does anyone know of a good Volvo mechanic or reliable dealership(that won't drain my bank) near the Mahwah, NJ area? I'm driving there tomorrow night and will be there all week for work. My radiator fan doesn't work and I need it replaced. :(

Thanks so much! I'm in the Poconos (Tannersville, Stroudsburg area). If I can't get to a junkyard tomorrow are there any sites that you recommend getting this from? I'm driving about 90 miles tomorrow night heading to Mahwah, NJ so I'll post and see if anyone knows of a reputable garage or dealer in ...

Re: Volvo running hot during idle/traffic

Unfortunately I have to fix this tomorrow as I leave tomorrow night :( I tried jumpering and got nothing from the fan.
I usually like to replace all parts with OEM, however since I'm in a time crunch this is the only thing local.
